If you remember, the room was still not complete when the photo above was first posted. We still had doors to install in other parts of the room. This post is all about the entrance to the master bath. Here's the transformation that took place...

BEFORE...strips on walls, brown door and trim, green carpeting...

DURING...walls and floors done, no door to master bath...

AFTER...door to master bath installed...

No, that is not your standard door! We picked up two of these schnazzy old school doors this summer from the garage sale held by Sue Whitney of JunkMarket fame. After a little TLC and bit of polishing, they were ready to be hung! They are mounted on flat track that our parents rescued from an 1800s barn that was being torn down. They are the real deal!! A brass ship's nurse plaque mounted to the center and a ship's key for the upper deck showers inserted in the keyhole adds a bit of fun to the mix!

Oh, Amy! That is so beautiful! We'll never get you down to Texas now and I don't blame either of you. The combination of your hunting and gathering skills with his gitter-done know-how is magical! Very nice job!

Oh my goodness...I am in love! That door is so unique and inspiring. What a great eye you have for character! I love your bedroom in your header. I want a King Louis chair sooooo bad. This is my first time to your blog and I love it. I'm going to stay a while....Blessings,Tracip.s. stop by my blog sometime and say hello! :)

Girl, I am speechless...which is no easy thing to accomplish. That door is beautiful. Why would anyone in their right mind want new, ever?Ask Ron if he wants to run away with me? I love how everything came together over a period of time and patience. Obviously you learned the art of gathering from your folks...I mean really...that track is the cherry on top!Debbie

Wow Amy, this is stunning. Tell Ron he did a fabulous job on this addition. I remember him talking to Sue the night we all were hanging out and he was asking her questions about Elizabeths doors upstairs. This turned out just so very cool and you must just be loving this! Way to go Ron.Gretchen

Oh good golly!! I am in love with that door,(and the track)! It's probably a good thing that we don't live closer, because you might come home one day to find me in your master bedroom, just soaking it all in. ;)

Oh my goodness, I love your room! The door is just a fantastic finishing touch.I recently scored a similar cafe(?) cart to the one next to your bed...haven't totally decided what to do with it yet, but this whole room is inspiration.

You really ROCKED this makeover.The door is absolute perfection! Just awesome. The entire room is so serene. We used a lot of old doors in our re-model, so your style really sings to us! Thanks so much for sharing! Deborah

Your room is looking really very beautiful. You made your home very nice. Thanks for sharing its nice images here. I am going to buy a new home and I got new ideas for its infrastructure from here.Thanks a lot for this nice post. I will sure visit it in future too. I like your ideas very much.

I love this room SO MUCH! I'm working on my bedroom now and I'm gaining lots of inspiration from your room. Mine is NOTHING in comparison, but I have high hopes that one day it may be just a tenth as nice as yours. The doors...LOVE EM!-FringeGirl
